Replying to OP, the cultures that wrote both the Bible and Greek mythology were extremely sexist by modern and historical standards. 3, 4, 5, 6 are not supposed to be bastions of virtue to be emulated, they are men living in or being written by men living in the Bronze Age Dark Age in the near east, a time period and location that were extremely harsh, violent, and lawless. It took thousands of years of continuous, strenuous effort for humanity to improve itself and make a world where sacrificing your daughters to an angry mob to protect the travelers who are under your care isn't a choice anyone has to make.
1 is a first heard for me. I don't know anyone who believes this, but there are many, many cursed people in folklore and fiction of both genders.
7 the Greek gods are cruel, capricious, incomprehensible, and very dangerous to everyone. I have certainly never encountered anyone who believed that the story of Medusa was a story of wisely applied divine justice.
8 I don't know which cult you mean. Most cults that I know of that sacrificed humans sacrificed the vulnerable or the valuable, not the beautiful. Broadly speaking, cultures that did practice human sacrifice, like Carthage or the Aztecs, did not choose just one gender to slaughter. Carthage killed the children of aristocrats under the principle that their gods cared about the value of the sacrifice being made. The Aztecs killed the vulnerable and prisoners of war mostly. You certainly won't find me justifying those practices.
As to the main question, life is difficult for everyone at all times. Everyone has challenges to overcome equal to the measure of their character. As humans, we tend to see and value the privileges that we do not have, while ignoring those that we do have.
I know if life came with a character creator, I would have chosen woman over man! Women have privileges that I value highly, and on average have an easier time with things that I value but am not good at. On the other hand, many things that women find difficult or challenging, or privileges they ascribe to men, are things that I don't perceive as difficult or important.
A couple relatively innocuous examples:
Women in modern society are expected to wear their hair long, on average, while men are generally expected to cut their short. I, a man, have always wanted to have longer hair because I value self expression highly and find it to be a lot of fun. As a child, I was always required to have a buzz or crew cut by my parents. As an older teen, I grew it out a little, but I lacked the skills to really take care of it, and I was obliged not to grow it any longer because I still lived with my parents. As an adult, I needed to join the military and have had to wear my hair very short ever since. It is likely that by the time I reach a point where I am able to grow my hair to a length I prefer, I will not have much left to grow!
On the other hand, many women these days go for very short buzz cuts for aesthetic or practical reasons. They can do what they want, but these women have a privilege that I have never really had but always wanted, and choose not to exercise it because they don't value it.
Petty? Sure.
Another petty example: many women on the internet complain about people not getting out of the way for them when they walk around, with strangers assuming that they will have to be the one that moves. For me, I'd gladly trade being able to walk down a crowded sidewalk for women not moving to the opposite side of the street just to avoid me!
Finally, it is my opinion that many, perhaps the majority, of societal issues that modern 1st world women complain about, ascribing to "men," "patriarchy," or "society," are pressures that women mostly place on each other or are structures that were created because women specifically asked (as a class) for things to be that way.
